Epsom Salt was less than $10 for 8lbs at my local pharmacy. I think most products marketed specifically for cannabis are a scam, but then again my current crop looks like sh*t lol.

No, I'm not expecting anything quickly, I just peek my head in and have a look. City pH is now 7.3 - 7.4, but I will address that at watering time and when I fertilize. Things should be back on track soon.

Probably so. Repotting later.

Yeah, ask 100 different growers the same question, get 100 different answers. Will be repotting in new soil this eve.

Yes, I think that must be it. I hope so anyway. I completely understand about the coco, I just thought it was better than leaving it in the old soil. It doesn't look any worse today after the transplant, maybe even a little better - but yes I know it has no nutrients. I am going to try to...

Thank you, I appreciate your contributions here.

My opinion doesn't mean much around here, but I agree with you. My parents have been growing with MG for probably 60 years. There is a reason for that. Of course it's not pot, but still. Actually, I put 2 pot plants on their back porch last summer to see how they did compared to 2 of the...

I think I will just water it for a bit and see what I see. If something looks like an improvement, I can always add some fert later. I am going to start with new soil on the rest when I get it but for now I will see what it does.

That does look similar. Similar circumstances. I gave the outside plants more fertilizer with no problems too. Here is one of my Scarlet Queens from this Fall.

That's what I will do. I grew EVERYTHING in 5 gal and 3 gal felt pots this year because the deer eat my crops if they are in the ground. I put everything on the back porch last summer, and the pots made it so I could move them if the deer came up on the porch. Had about 130 plants on my back...

Ok, I will not add compost. I'm not sure about nutrients. Maybe I will do a side by side test. I did a side by side test using only lake water once, but only for about 6 weeks. At the time I stopped with the lake water, there was no difference. Might try it again in the spring. Anyway...

That is very reasonable. It is something in the soil or a pH imbalance. Best to start with new soil. I am only growing these particular photos because they were forced on me. Except for the Scarlet Queen, which I have grown before and really like. The others I am told are limited releases...

My tomato and pea plants were 9 feet tall and would have been taller but I couldn't keep the pots upright anymore.

I agree with you and had pretty good results with it until now.

It's Christmas time, so I will probably go with the pro mix I have had success with before due to the cost. Otherwise the kids get coal this year. Would you mix pro mix with worm compost or not?

Yes, but again, it is only a test to see if the soil it was in was causing a nutrient lock out or burn. All I am going to do is give it water for a while. If it looks better I will put it and the others in new soil. I think she did not read the thread or did not get why I put this one plant...

I know what she was pointing out, I want to know why testing with new, clean medium to see it there is an improvement is a mistake. I have only grown in soil, no hydro at all ever unless you count the last 15 hours when I put one in coco for a test.

Yeah, it's hard to say about the LEDs without testing the draw. I got a meter for it but it's somewhere else at the moment. I was shooting for around 600W total in a 4x4, but with LEDs, I don't really know what I'm getting. Tried a PAR meter, but it was academic since that grow was fine...

I have some ff stuff but I never use it. I know a lot of people like it though. I don't want to start buying expensive fert because I go through a lot, but I don't know if the MG has some of the micronutrients that the ff has. Still, I did have good luck with the MG for a while. Maybe it got...

Yes, that's what was available. It was clean and new. What's wrong with that?
